What shape is the course in; any green grass?

How about Sonoran Spa Resort; are the restaurants/bars/pool side service open, or closed down?

thanks,
AZ ROB
Everything at the Sonoran Spa is open and functioning perfectly..
dry heat
the course does not seed for winter grass. thus in the cooler months the course does not look to great (playable though). warmer months the course is in much better shape.

This is true. Dont let the looks fool you though. The grass doesnt get overseeded with rye like the courses in Phoenix do in the winter months. The grass down there goes into a dormant state which sholdnt be confused with DEAD. The grass isn't green, it must be dead. Incorrect, the grass is just dormant but the course remains fully playable and the conditions aren't bad. If you're a real golfer you know what Im talking about. Greens and fairways are fast and the course plays a little different but the condition is still very playable. The two courses that are fully completed, the mayan and las palomas are in perfect shape as far as course condition in the middle of the summer due to the prime growing season. Hot weather and high humidity make the courses absolutely lush however it is hot as hell but as for the course conditions in the summer, perfect.
